On Wednesday, at the G20 Summit in Bali, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said India’s G20 presidency will be “inclusive, ambitious, decisive, and action-oriented”.

India is one of the world’s largest economies with massive potential. Modi emphasized the importance of women-led development, green-partnerships, education and capacity building.

India is expected to showcase its geographical and cultural diversity during the year, and will hold approximately 200 G20 meetings at different locations across the country.

Modi held private meetings with the leaders of Australia, France, Germany, Italy, Singapore and the U.K. British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak told him that the UK was committed to Free Trade Agreements with India, but needed some time to get the trade deals right. He also thanked Modi for the overwhelming support he received from the people of India.
